Kirkwood Highway from Harmony Road to Green Valley Circle

Project Need

The intersection of Kirkwood Highway and Upper Pike Creek Road/Old Harmony Road was recommended for improvements in the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). Limited sight distance for left-turning vehicles is causing high crash rates at this intersection.
